    - expand oam from 544 to 1024 bytes, to include flexible sprite sizes and a larger pool of pattern tables.
    - add another bank of vram for rotating/scaling sprites.
    - use packed pixel format instead of planar.
    - add a 320x224 mode.
    - fix the 5a22's bus timing so it can run faster on slower memory.
    - use a better math coprocessor that can do 16bit signed multiply and division.

    cost cutting changes:
    - get rid of mosiac and window effects.
    - remove highres modes and 8bpp modes.
    - reduce the amount of wram to 64kb or 32kb.
    - replace the spc700 with the cheaper Ricoh PCM chip.
